Lyrics:
I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN
I Should Have Known
Are you sure that we’re through?
Is there nothing I can do
to make you change your mind and stay and stop me feeling blue?
If what I did was hurt you, I’m sorry, can’t you see?
I should have known I’d only end up hurting me.
I wish that I’d been honest.
I wish I’d never strayed.
I wish that somehow I could fix the mess that I have made.
I didn’t ever mean to be so cruel.
Why was I such a crazy goddam fool?
CHORUS REPEAT
I wish that you would tell me
Just what I’d have to say
to prove to you I couldn’t bear for you to walk away.
I didn’t know this pain could be so bad.
Your loving was the best I ever had.
CHORUS REPEAT
